Dale City, CA has new water conservation rules

      Mayor Carol Klatt said last week "We have to look to the future for our water.  Landscaping is on area where measures can be taken to save water."  after the city council passed an ordinance which requires owners of new construction or landscaping projects to reduce their outdoor water usage by 25 percent.

   Dale City has really been promoting their water conservation effort lately.  Last month, the council passed an ordinance for indoor water usage.  Requiring that all new construction to feature water-efficient fixtures such as new aerating kitchen faucets.  Many cities in the surrounding areas are creating similar ordinance in their regions in response to recent legislative pressure to address the water supply problem.

Water Conservation with your Bathroom and Kitchen Faucets

Recently, we posted an article on our site, TheKitchenFaucet.com, on how you can promote water conservation in your home.  Aerators on your bathroom faucets and kitchen faucets help keep the rinsing power of your faucets while reducing the gallons per minute(GPM) coming from the faucet.  The article is called 10 Ways to Promote Water Conservation in your home.  Next week we will be writing an article on 10 Ways to Promote Water Conservation around the yard.  This article will focus on conserving water around the yard.  We have also recently made a HubPage on water conservation and why it is so important to the future of our society.  It also has some neat polls to see what people are already doing to help promote the conservation of water.
